The world's oldest complete wooden hunting weapons are 200,000 years old, not 300,000 as previously believed. This is shown by a new dating study that Zoran Perić from the Department of Geology participated in, which has now been published in Science Advances and highlighted in international media. The discovery indicates that the spears originate from Neanderthals, deepening our understanding of

  Daniel Conley is investigating the seas of ancient times. His sights are set on finding a moment in time when the chemistry of the oceans changed completely, when the diatoms became common, which changed the Earth's ecosystem. In addition to be a major food source, the algae absorb large quantities of silicon from the oceans. They absorb carbon dioxide and give off oxygen. As much as 20 percent

The terrestrial silicon (Si) cycle determines the amount of Si transported to the oceans. In this study we use Si isotopes measured in diatoms to show how human activity influences the Si budget of Lake Tiefer See (Germany) within the last 4300 years. Deforestation and crop harvest in the catchment are the dominant processes altering Si fluxes on centennial time scales. Link to the article.

Research has shed new light on the impact of humans on Earth’s biodiversity. The findings suggest that the rate of change in an ecosystem’s plant-life increases significantly during the years following human settlement, with the most dramatic changes occurring in locations colonized in the last 1500 years.  An international research team, including Karl Ljung and Svante Björck, studied fossilised
